Description
This lantern style mantel clock brings a traditional look to the home, with a wooden case in a warm oak colour and a gold-coloured carrying handle on top. The rectangular case steps out in layered mouldings at the top and the base, and it stands on small bracket feet. Behind the clear front panel sits a cream analogue dial with black Roman numerals, a gold-coloured bezel and ornate black hands. Beneath the dial, a gold-coloured ornament of twin columns and polished balls fills the window. Clear side windows let the light through the case. It stands 29.5cm tall, 19cm wide and 12.5cm deep.
At 29.5cm tall it sits comfortably on a mantelpiece without crowding it, and at 12.5cm deep it fits on most shelves, sideboards and bookcases too. The traditional shape and warm wood tones suit a living room, dining room, study or hallway table, and sit happily alongside wooden furniture. The Roman numeral dial is easy to read at a glance, and the handle on top makes it simple to lift and move from room to room when you fancy a change. It is a freestanding clock, so there is nothing to fix to the wall and no drilling to do.
The clock keeps time with a quartz movement and takes the AA battery size (also sold as MN1500 or LR6). Batteries are not included, so have one ready when you unpack it. The back is closed with a neat dark grey panel framed in wood, so it looks tidy from every side. To keep the case looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth. We like it set at the centre of the mantelpiece with a candlestick at either side, and it makes a handsome gift for anyone who loves a traditional clock.
